Dave Prentice - Midfield and right-back are up for debate

There's only two selections to make here. Is it Camacho, Milner or "Clyney" at right-back?

And who plays midfield?

Right-back really isn't up for debate. Camacho hasn't featured all season, Clyne has started once - in September - but Milner played Liverpool's last Premier League match at right-back - and did well.

And while it's awfully harsh on Shaqiri, I don't think Klopp can afford to be too open against a team with the quality Jose Mourinho has at his disposal - even if he will roll a big red bus across his goalmouth.

Jordan Henderson, Naby Keita and Xherdan Shaqiri

So Keita will come in to offer some creativity, but Henderson and Wijnaldum offer strength and stability.

Jurgen Klopp faces a mini-injury crisis in defence and the question mark - with Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold facing a spell on the sidelines - is at right-back.

The incredibly versatile and every green James Milner is the choice for me. Those joining him in the heart of defence have to be Dejan Lovren and Virgil van Dijk - due to Joel Matip's injury - and at left-back Andy Robertson.

There is also a midfield conundrum that has caused the manager a pleasant headache all season so far on who is best to play.

Joining them in my midfield three is Jordan Henderson - it's harsh on Xherdan Shaqiri but you can't leave yourself too open and the captain is the man for big games and despite an intensive run out against Napoli he will be bang up for a match-up against United.

The front three, as ever, pick themselves. Mohamed Salah goes in the middle for me though - his world-class ability seems to show best in that position and that means on the right is Roberto Firmino with Sadio Mane on the left.

Theo Squires - Henderson and Wijnaldum get the nod

Manchester United at home. Another huge game and one where you need your captain so Jordan Henderson starts in midfield. It’s a toss-up between him and Fabinho but the skipper’s experience in this fixture edges it for me.

I’m going for 4-3-3 so Naby Keita and Gini Wijnaldum can line up alongside him in midfield.

Injuries force Jurgen Klopp’s hand in defence. No Joe Gomez, Joel Matip or Trent Alexander-Arnold so James Milner and Dejan Lovren can take up the vacated defensive positions ahead of Alisson alongside Virgil van Dijk and Andy Robertson.

Milner may not enjoy playing full-back but he performed well at right-back last weekend at AFC Bournemouth and I’d feel more confident having him start there rather than the returning Nathaniel Clyne after his last 18 months of injury hell.
